Wiki system does not promote happzzard editing ......you can set it so 
that only people in particular group  can edit or configure a workflow 
around it....It has support for revisions,unlimited rollbacks, content 
expiry, discussions, talkbacks etc...its a very dynamic process  
...designed for sole aim for cooperative documentation writing

I can suggest another alternative for documentation can be a good  CMS 
....I have been using CMS called typo3 (www.typo3.org) for a while ...It 
has built in workflow, Richtext editor, XML support, Dynamic Conversion 
support
